The walk out promise
Independent research by McCrindle, a national study of 1,002 people leaders.
These are the shapes. The session you get is built for your event and your audience, and I’ll ask a lot of questions first.
Just 3% of leaders feel completely confident to build great team culture. Not because they don’t care, but because nobody ever made it practical. Backed by my national research with over 1,000 people leaders, this keynote hands your leaders the conversations that turn culture from a poster on the wall into something they build deliberately, week by week. Audiences discover why 95% of people leaders say culture is the outcome of small decisions over time, why the leaders closest to the work matter more than the boardroom, and exactly which conversations move a team from culture by accident to culture by design. Practical, funny and immediately usable. They’ll walk out knowing what to do on Monday.

Research-backed and practical, and nobody checks their phone. If you’d rather hear it from the people who booked me, step through these.
I was at a conference where I was speaking after Shane. I like the person before me to not be very good, because then I look great. And I was watching him and thinking I am in serious trouble. This guy is really funny, really clever, there are a million take outs, he’s really interactive with the audience, he’s absolutely brilliant!
